I have another document that needs to be restructured. Here is the question. Explain why it is important for the first-due fire companies to be present when the final inspection/commissioning is being done on a smoke control/management system. What should the final testing process include.

 

The presence of the first-due fire companies at the final inspection or commission of a smoke control management system is of great importance. The ability for the first-due company to complete an accurate identification of the structure type and the classification are formulative factors towards the awaited variables residing in the structural integrity as well as the pliability that fire behavior may concur. It is the duty for the arriving companies and personnel in the fire proximity to quickly and precisely recognize the significant essentials of a building. They must then process their acquired data founded upon a broadening turf of factors and variables present in today's evolving fire ground. It is key to have an expansive, well-developed foundation of knowledge in building construction since some of the key roles to the first-due companies includes: Identification, assessment, probability, predictability, intrinsic characteristics, and expected performance. They must comprehend a buildings complexity in terms of building anatomy, structural systems, building materials, configuration, design, layout, systems, protectives, methods of construction, engineering and inherent features, and limitations. The companies must then assess and integrate an adaptive fire management model and flexible incident action plan.

The objective of fire control systems and smoke management systems is to ensure the safety of the occupants of any given structure, therefore the objective of fire control systems and smoke management systems inspection/testing/commission is to ensure that the components within the system are working properly and working concurrently together. The systems should meet the governing codes and the intent of design. They must be able work properly in detecting fire, preventing smoke migration, and maintaining appropriate pressure.

 

The goals for fire-smoke damper tests and engineered smoke control tests include 5 factors:

• Verification of the completion of all fire-smoke damper prefunctional checklists. Prior to performing any functional tests, the commissioning pre-start/ current start-up/ prefunctional checklists/ applicable manufacturer's pre-start and start-up recommendations should be completed.

• Verification that the system in operating as it is projected. This is verified under ordinary power as well as emergency power. When testing operation under emergency power, it is recommended to disconnect the normal building power to simulate actual emergency operating conditions.

• Verification of correct damper operations. A smoke damper is applied during two smoke control cycles. The first is a passive cycle in which the damper is closed in order to prevent migration of smoke through the duct across a smoke barrier. The supply fan is normally shut off. The second is an engineered cycle in which it actively controls different dampers and fans in order to contain the smoke within the event location.

• Verification of properly operating damper position indicator switches if they are present.

• Verification of the proper operation of temperature response devices. The damper will automatically shut when temperature surpasses the fixed setting in a fire or a combined fire-smoke damper.
